Are you just saying this to be funny? I don’t even posit a dichotomy in that post, much less a false one.

Whoa, whoa, whoa there little buddy! We’ll never get to 7 point red cunt territory if you go too far too fast. You don’t want to get the Mods mixed up in this before you tell us about all the support people are secretly sending you by e-mail.
